Our 3D printed virus ornaments are ready! We are selling these ornaments to raise money for science outreach. We have:

Human Papillomavirus

Adeno-Associated Virus

Hepatitis B

Human Papillomavirus

Adeno-Associated Virus

Last week, I shared our first few prints on Twitter and they were well received. We had plans to add glitter, but I learned that I should be nowhere near a spray can – and that the viruses look better in their classic original print.

How did these happen?

A wonderful woman I work with, Jenny McQueen, altered the virus files uploaded to Thingiverse by Dave (username educator). Because all proceeds are going to our science outreach program, everyone has given us permission to use their work – thank you!

Every virus ornament is going to come with a festive bit of information.
